The victims can only sue to recoup individual impacts, such as ongoing need for therapy, etc. There is nothing compelling them to share the money with agencies to help potential victims in other circumstances, as this fine will do. It will go to non-Penn State organizations dealing with ways to eradicate or ameliorate the effects of child sex abuse.
I will admit when I posted that, I hadn’t reade the full article and was only going by the summary. It makes more sense. I generally don’t trust the NCAA, and honestly don’t view them as having any general integrity. Upon further investigation, I found the students who do leave will be losing their scholarships. They will either lose the scholarship and have to pay as a walk-on at their new school or, if the new school gives them a scholarship, it will come from a scholarship from another student. So maybe the NCAA should have taken some extra money to cover that, because it still seems to me that the players who had nothing to do with this are getting screwed.
